Perhaps you meant num2str instead of str2num since there are 5 parameters in your email. If parameters are 5,0,0,0 after the number, then you are saying that the result will have 5 characters, zero decimals, and no separators (either for decimal or for thousands). The str2num function has only one parameter.
